It looks as though there are a couple from CVW-2(NE). When I was in CVW-2, the fighter outfits were VF21 and VF154 in F4s. In 1980 and 1981 on the Jimmy Carter Hostage Cruise we had VF1 and VF2. Being in VA145, those guys loved us, we had the KA-6D and boy did they need it. Almost 2 million pounds of fuel to each during the deployment. Still picikng on the Tomcat guys, what can I say?
